COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AND UNION CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION

Workforce Relations assists supervisors and managers with union contract administration, including training on new contracts, interpretation of contract provisions, serving as negotiators or representatives in system wide negotiations and coordinating release time for employee representatives on union bargaining teams. We represent management in local negotiations and labor-management meetings with union representatives. We also coordinate:

• Communications with unions, business agents, representatives, and stewards. This includes approvals for union business leave and notice obligations for changes to terms and conditions of employment.
• Communications with management about union negotiations, changes in union contracts, and guidance on responding to union representatives entering the workplace (access requests and concerns).
• Employee enrollment in union dues and questions about dues and agency fees.
• Responses to union requests for information. This includes information the union may be entitled to under HEERA or the California Public Records Act.
